When Elsenhower is in Washington he sees Radford about twice a week to keep abreast of military developments. One Eisenhower associate marked it has been nothing short of amazing and they say it every year how Eisenhower has been able to shed the tension of his job since he arrived here Aug. 14. "When he left Washington he was a bit on edge, nothing sur- prising In view of the pressure of the recent Big Four conterenci and everything else, but he did need to let up a bit," said this aide. "Now he's a new man, ready for anything." Each year about this point In the Eisenhower vacation the influx of top Washington officials begins. Secretary of the Interior McKay already has been here for a brief conference and others undoubtedly will be coming along. But It will continue to be more vacation than work for the Presi dent. He spent only 90 minutes at his Lowry Air Force Base office yes terday morning, then went out to play golf. He allocated another 2 million dollars lor Hood reliel. Ft.

Demos To Hit Farm Policies WASHINGTON tt A new j per cent drop in farm prices today spurred Democratic preparations for an all-out attack on Republican agricultural policies. Announcing formation of a na tionwide agricultural advisory committee. Clayton Fritchey. Dep uty Democratic national chairman. said his party expects to start "go ing to town" on the farm issue this fall. "We regard the larm price situ ation as one of the most Important issues that will come up in the presidential campaign," he said. We are getting ready to hit it hard. Fritchey said the Democrats' ad visory committee probably will in clude governors, members of con gress and dirt farmers. He said It will be charged with preliminary work on a 1956 farm plank. Democrats in congress generally have supported a return to rigid. high-level price supports, as op posed to the Elsenhower adminis tration's program of flexible supports. In Its monthly price survey, the Agriculture Department reported yesterday farm prices tumbled an other 2 per cent In August. Ap proaching heavy harvesting and marketing seasons threatened fur ther downturns belore the end of the year. The farm price level in mid August averaged 23) per cent of the .1910-1914 base period 6 per cent below a year ago, 12.5 per cent below the start of the Eisen hower administration in 1953 and about 25 per cent below the record of February 1951 during the Ko rean War.
